Jura Cask Strength Collection 16 Year Old, Oloroso Sherry Cask, Cask #17, 2009, Signatory Vintage, 54.2%

tidepool_pebble11 Oct

The name identifies an Oloroso sherry cask, and the notes support a substantial sherry-led character: dried fruit meets dark chocolate, cinnamon and pronounced oak spice. That sounds direct and well connected rather than relying on a cask label alone. The dry, nutty finish, with almonds, leather and oak seasoning, gives it a firmer close. At 54.2% and 16 years old, it reads as a bold style. The pronounced oak may be a little much for anyone after a softer sherry malt.

This sounds firmly on the rich side, with dense sherry notes alongside dark chocolate and oak spice. The long, dry, gently nutty finish adds a nice contrast.

At SGD 137.36, bold sherry and oak spice sound appealing, though assertive.

The ripe dried fruit, fig and date give this a clear, familiar fruit thread, while walnut adds a more savoury edge. I like the contrast on the palate: bold sherry notes and dark chocolate meet cinnamon and pronounced oak spice, rather than letting the fruit take over. The long, dry finish with almonds and gentle nuttiness sounds like a satisfying close. A rich, assertive style, but the fruit keeps it inviting.
